I'm really interested in what this combo is now. :P

Even one player who hangs out at the top table of ROOT consistently is plenty of proof that it's not common knowledge regardless of how old it is.

The credentials of a player in ROOT really has no connection whatsoever to a combo that has been around forever, thus likely people would know about it.

Yet people don't seem to know about it, do they?
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

If I'm thinking of the right combo, you could have done it at least 6 years ago...

Nope.  Pol's combo didn't exist until August 2010.

Quiet. The more people that don't know it, the more people there are to pressure those who do into telling.

:doh: I just realized what the third card was. I was thinking it wasn't great, but yeah, it's a pretty sweet combo.

It could still be used to good effect before 2010 if, I dunno, you had an empty hand.

Just got an idea. You could easily win your case if you told all of us ;-)

Thanks for the compliments Pol, but unfortunately I can't be your poster child for not knowing this combo.  I actually figured it out right after Prof A's response to my previous post on this thread.

That is pretty nice actually as long as you're set up.  My guess though is that you only pull it off about 20% of games.

You still work as a poster child because you didn't know about it until just now, and MKC is trying to make it out that everyone knows about it just because it's been possible for a while.

When I use that deck I get it off more like 35% of games, but when I do get it set up I always win, and I usually get to use it multiple times.

With the tidbits of info that people have said, I think I have an idea how to do it with 3 cards. Not sure if it's what you guys are talking about, though.

I didn't say everyone. I said it's likely the combo would be common knowledge because its old.

Tempted to state the combo.

But I'll just go ahead and say that I voted for Hur.

I voted for Micah, even after realizing the complete combo. I had to figure out the control element.

Haha, I love all this buildup over such a simple combo. When you do figure it out/hear it you'll be all "oh, was that all?"

I didn't think it was that awesome because at first I was like, well, your opponent pretty much has to be an idiot. Then I was like oh, that's cool, but not groundbreaking.

I voted for Hur based on his hand neutralizing ability. If your opponent has all the cards they need to win in hand and you attack with Hur your opponent will most likely be set back. I can't think of many other heroes I don't want to attack me when I have my hand set to win.

I voted for Micah for two reasons:

1) Getting cards back is always nice to me.

2) Hur's SA has actually cost me more games than it has won (never use him in late game).

1.) Have Naz in territory
2.) Block RA with King Rehoboam
3.) Choose Hur as their hero

You get to D7, because Naz is protecting your hand from Hur's shuffle ability.

I was actually just about to pm someone who knew the combo to see if this was it, because I had just figured it out, but I see that's no longer necessary.

I figured it out on a 4 mile run this afternoon.  Exercise is good for clearing of the head.  :)

I also figured out another way to do it, but it takes one more card.

Nazareth.  Stalks of Flax send Hur.  Block with Complainers.  Choose Hur.

With Complainers and Stalks of Flax added to your deck that already contains King Rehoboam, Hur, and Nazareth, you might be able to pull of the combo a little more often.  Maybe.
